Pros and Cons

Motorola Moto G31

Strengths

The highlight of the g31, the thing that sets it above and most of its pairs at this sort of price point is the oled display
You can get some really nice snaps if the conditions are perfect then you can get some really nice snaps
There's no need to worry about battery drain as the mediatek processor is quite energy efficient
The camera app is stuffed with features including that uh camera ai action and plenty of bonus camera modes
You can expect pretty basic results but more often than not, you'll probably end up chucking a lot of snaps away especially if you're trying to shoot 11 subject which moves around
The selfie shooter does a decent job for everyday shareable shots

Weaknesses

The camera tech is rather basic as is the performance so are you tempted by the moto g31 be greater your thoughts down in the comments below
No 5g support sadly here on the moto g31 not given at this price point by any means
Just 10 watt charging which isn't exactly particularly nippy
The camera struggles really badly in low light or tricky conditions so definitely use it sparingly
Video modes are limited to full hd footage with no way of bumping that up to 4k level unfortunately there's no 60fps option either
Camera results can be thrown off by sharp contrast, extreme brightness and also low light making you chuck a lot of snaps away

Motorola Moto E30

Strengths

The battery life on this phone is beyond amazing, it's like the battery just doesn't want to die.
The storage and micro sd card slot is great, with a capacity to expand up to 256GB
The speaker gets very loud on maximum volume which is good to see or hear
The night mode feature on the camera is quite detailed and bright even though it may have some noise
The device is priced at £99 in the UK which makes it one of the best value smartphones available

Weaknesses

The storage capacity is only 32GB with no option for a larger variant
The 2GB of RAM can cause issues such as apps freezing and restarting
The selfie camera has washed out colors, low dynamic range and details
The video recording stabilization on the front camera is quite shaky
The charger provided is only 10W which takes an awfully long time to charge
